OK........so apparently it is not a blown strut. It was the sway bar link on the driver's side. For those who do not know it attaches from the end of the sway bar to a point on the strut. Either way.......it is getting fixed......just not under warranty now........buggers.

Crappy, what is that gonna put you back?
On top of that, how much did you pay for your suspension, I got a quote from Matrix Motorsports in Edmonton for the Stage 1 suspension at $599.98. Good? Bad?
Good luck with the repairs.
Also, when I was talking with the manager of the place, he was telling me that both front and rear sway bars would be slower than just installing a rear. Also only having the rear installed is supposed to help correct the natural understeer from FWD vehicles.

I got mine for $400 US shipped from Michigan. With shipping it came under what you were quoted. www.neverenuf.com Brad is great to deal with. The front sway bar does take much longer to install then the rear one. Some people have said that they did not want to install the fron sway bar because it did not make much of a difference, but I beg to differ. It made a big difference!

ya, $$ is always good. they find it necessary to have first before they let you order.

hehe, only sometimes. Gotta love C.O.D. Not that it happens very much anymore.

Yeah....a lot of the companies do not like C.O.D. because then they sometimes have to sit and wait for people etc to pay.

most companies won't do COD anymore since the postal companies don't really care. they'll take a check and then the check bounces... they have the item and the company has nothing.

The only way that you might see COD is if the company is local. Other then that though...you will not see it at all.

that's nice. i doubt they would do anything like that at the dealership here, even though phil works there.

Really?? That sucks! You would think that working at the dealership would get Phil a deal!

oh he can get good pricing on vehicles there. that's no prob. we get certain accomodations too. this is good since his heart's set on an STI. so once we get the house and STI, i want to upgrade the LGT (i hope but we'll see what happens).
